Unfortunately, I cannot understand your position. You write-: "Whereas with a non-automatic release there is a conscious triggering or "hit it now" deal. This would be done with the selected Throw. You can basically "start" your release anywhere in the downstroke . . . early or late." You seem to be implying that when a golfer triggers the downswing with a selected throw (eg. right shoulder throw) that the downswing triggering action also triggers the release in a non-automatic manner. I cannot understand this point. From my perspective, a trigger starting the downswing pivot action cannot be the same trigger used to trigger a non-automatic release. For example, I happen to chose a right shoulder throw maneuver to trigger my downswing pivot action, but my release happens automatically (what 6b mike implies is an "uncontrolled" release). In other words, I cannot understand how there can be an ironclad causal connection between a downswing pivot action trigger and a non-automatic release action. Could you please expand on this point? Also, you state that the non-automatic release could theoretically be activated anywhere in the downswing. That seems to be inherently true of the phrase "non-automatic". Then, how can the selected throw be the causative event if the selected throw occurs at the very start of the downswing, but the chosen non-automatic release occurs much later in the downswing? Jeff.
